A top price for Philomé Obin - as previously expected
In June 2021 Sothebys in New York held the auction Impressionist & Modern Art, which included the work Un mardi de Carnaval by Philomé Obin. It changed hands for a price of USD 18,900.00 (€ 15,952.06) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Un mardi de Carnaval is the most expensive artwork by Philomé Obin that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im Juni 2021 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Impressionist & Modern Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Un mardi de Carnaval von Philomé Obin zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 18.900,00 (€ 15.952,06) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Un mardi de Carnaval das teuerste Kunstwerk von Philomé Obin, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
